Patek Philippe Highlights

Libro llego dańado, tuvo que volverlo. En general, me encuentre el libro muy escueto por precio/calidad. No vale la pena. Obviously, It’s darle from being complete. No recomendó.,

An entertaining read on watches.

ドイツ語と英語で併記されています。 目次は、1. Brand history, 2. Historical Models, 3. Complications, 4. Grand Complications, 5. Calatrava, 6. Nautilus, 7. Aquanaut, 8. Ellipse d'Or, 9. Gondoro となっていて、それぞれに典型的なモデルや珍しいモデルが写真で紹介されています。たとえば、Historical Models のページには、２個しか作られなかったステンレススティールの複雑時計が紹介されています。 もう少し、ムーブメントの写真が多いとよいと感じました。

ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo consigliato a tutti

If you are interested in high-end watches and in particular Patek Philippe, then this book is lightweight and uninspired. It provides a brief history of the company and its founders, and then follows with a number of early models with pictures and specification (pretty much brochure-like). The second half of the book deals with modern PP watches with the same format. It includes very brief descriptions of complications and super complications, but nothing very informative. I would have thought that there would have been scope to easily include more information about complications and some deatiled pictures/schematics on the calibres produced by PP. The language is down as ENGLISH, but the book is repeated both in German and English, so a lot of wasted space. If this was produced in English only (as advertised) then there could have been a lot more detail. I recently purchased the Patek Philippe 2010/20111 hardback brochure with over 200 pages on eBay for under £15 including postage, and this gave loads more information and for me is my definitive guide. So, don't waste your money on this book and get something a lot more comprehensive.
